³ Even the sparrow finds a home,
    and the swallow builds her nest and raises her young
at a place near your altar,
    O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, my King and my God!
⁴ What joy for those who can live in your house,
    always singing your praises. Interlude

² Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow,
    an undeserved curse will not land on its intended victim.
